Conservative, Penrith and The Border
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs
(1) what progress she has made in publishing the location of each foot and mouth disease pyre and burial site in the UK;
(2) how many pyre sites there are in each county in the UK; from how many ash has been removed; and how many have been completely restored.
Elliot Morley
Parliamentary Under-Secretary, Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs
Information on pyre and burial sites is in the process of being collated, cross-checked and validated. In the meantime, arrangements are being made for the safe removal and disposal of ash from those sites where it has not been possible to bury it on site. Information on the number of pyre sites restored is not available.
